Skull & Shackles

Shanghaied

The players awake after visiting the Formidably Maid for one reason or another, to find themselves conscripted as crew on the Wormwood, a ship captained by Baranabas Harrigan. Finding themselves without weapons, armor, wealth and most of their other items have left the PCs feeling a bit lost and helpless, as they get used to finding their sea legs and learning life aboard the Wormwood.

Boarding Action (...at last!)

Day 17: Unpleasant Duties
The ship’s crew seems to have polarized into two factions.

Day 19: Risky Games in the Bilges:
Grumdar proves himself a survivor, albeit at the cost of the life of “Owlbear.”
While thrown in the sweatbox, his sentence was postponed when sails were sighted late that afternoon.

Whore’s Boudoir: This tent as filled with clothes, pillows and three female ghouls. The party handily met the challenge and took them down with little problem or harm to themselves.

Crab Palm Beach: Maarin learned that picking using the survival skill and picking coconuts can be very dangerous. Barely surviving the ordeal, she has lost her right hand.

The Fields: Head’s were posted in the overgrown cornfield and some remains and wealth were located by the party just off the overgrown path. Maarin’s worst fears were found to be true and an Ankheg attacked the party. Tiamara nearly met her death, but feels lucky to have survived with the loss of part of her leg. Just below her right knee the Ankheg had made mincemeat and a meal of her leg, so she now hobbles along with a temporary crutch until something else can be done.

The 500 foot climb was managed and the party came across a makeshift stockade. A near deadly encounters ensued with two Vine Chokers. Grumdar and Gorloff came close to following Maarin and Tiamara’s earlier paths, but the party managed to survive with no further casualties.

A spyglass was noticed posted tot he stockade and a view within indicates an area to the south-south west which might hold a clue to the disappearance of Samaritha and “Barefoot.”

There appears to be another smaller stockade or some lodging just beyond in the stockade.
